I'm in Australia so I'm using PAL. I read that the recording dimensions for
PAL should be 720 wide x 576 high, but when I do this I notice that it uses
a lot more CPU (20% more) and the picture quality improvement is only
marginal. Is 720 x 576 right?

Yes, I believe that is the correct resolution for PAL. Where exactly are you setting this resolution - as you state below, X doesn't like resolutions that aren't available on your video card.

What do most people set this to on PAL
systems. Also, I thought I should also set the X "modes" and "metamodes"
settings to 720x576 but it doesn't allow this. Am I trying to do something
stupid here?


For your X resolution, just use 800x600 - it's close enough and works fine here.
